1942] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 941 Housing Division to give operators of student houses, including fraternities and sororities, as much leeway as is possible consistent with minimum health and safety standards to make the necessary adjustments and changes. The University has received communications from representatives of fraternities and sororities and from operators of independent student homes, requesting modifications of these standards and exceptions in certain situations. Doubtless members of the Board have also received some of these communications. Inasmuch as the University is operating a Housing Division under regulations and procedures authorized by the Board of Trustees, I recommend that the questions which have been raised be referred to the Board Committee on Student Welfare and Activities. O n motion of M r . Davis, this matter was referred to the Committee on Student W e l f a r e and Activities for study and recommendation.
